Indiana St DB Carlos Aviles was ejected in the second half of Thursday night's college football season opener against intra-state rival Indiana for delivering an illegal helmet-to-helmet hit on defenseless punt returner Shane Wynn.
There was no debating the call as Wynn positioning himself to catch a punt when Aviles delivered the illegal hit while running at full speed, knocking Wynn to the ground. Fortunately, Wynn was able to walk to the sideline under his own power.
Indiana State was assessed a 15-yard flagrant foul penalty and Aviles was thrown out. In addition, Aviles will also miss first half of Indiana State's next game.
Indiana routed Indiana State 73-35.
